The CAVITIES circulation is steadily in
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchas
ing. That this is aelfevdent may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi-
tion-nearly as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
week, and is read by thousands, most of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad-
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, ap-
parent.

world has ever been its aim. 1t is AWAY.
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable
The GAZETTE has better facilities for %.
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is SO Gloss
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our own domain as well as
from every part of the habitable globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa
pers
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE u great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
n and near the city, and this feature will,
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub.
lished regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monweath are TO be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.

morning One OF the strangest accidents Oc'
CURED here thSt has ever been witnessed
by railroad men. An unknown man wbC
was walking along the track was struck by
q freight train. The body was thrown on
the pilot of the engine, where it lay until
LarehmOunt was reached. There it fell to
the road bed and both feet were cut of.
Another train on the opposite track struck
the man and nee more he was hurled on
the pilot and lay there until New Rochelle
was reached, when the body rolled off and
the wheels q second time passed over him,
When the train moved of it was seen that
the headless trunk remained after the ter.
rible buffeting it received. No one waE
found to tell who the man was,

PLEURO-PNEUMONIA.
The Government Authorized to Use Force
to Kill the Plague.

The Government Authorized to Use Force
to Kill the Plague.
WASHINGTON, April l6.-The Commits
siOner of Agriculture has issued 4 new set
of rules governing the operations of the
department in the suppression and extirpa-
ton of pleuro-pneumOnia and other infec-
tiOus diseases.
The Chief of the Bureau of Animal In
dustry is required to send inspectors to
points where he has reason to believe any
contagious disease OF cattle exists. The
inspector is required in case he finds the
disease actually exists to impose temporary
quarantine, notifying the owners and
warning them not to remove the quaran-
tined animals under the penalties imposed
by Congress.
The Chief is also required to report 10
the Commissioner whenever he is satisfied
that contagious diseases exist in a locality
and there is danger of its spreading to
other States and Territories, ]whereupOn
the Commissioner will quarantine that
locality, cause the diseased animals to be
slaughtered and the infected premises to
be disintected. Should any animal be
permitted to go into such premises before
the disintectiOn is officially declared com-
pletc, a second diSinfeCtiOn will be ordered
at the expense of the owner.
All quarantined animals will be regard
ed rs affected with contagious disease, and
any person removing them from the in.
fected district will be prosecuted. The
Chief OF the Bureau may cause exposed
animals to be slaugbted whenever it is
deemed necessary to prevent the spread OF
the disorder from one State or Territory 10
another. Provision is made Tor the ap.
praisal Of and payment for slaughtered
animals.
Whenever it is deemed necessary by the
Chief of the Bureau to supervise and in
spect any lines of transportation doing
business in more than one State, and the
boats, EARS and stOckyards in connection
Herewith, he is required TO designate suit
able inspectors and make necessary regu-
latiOns-fOr the quarantine and disinfectiOn
of such boats, cars aud stock yards rs are
suspected of being affected with disease.
Whenever any inspector is prevented or OBJ
structed or interfered with in the perform
ance of his duty he is required to call
upon the police authorities for aid and
protection, and, if this is denied, he is then
TO call upon the United States Marshal for
force and to file Information with the Dis
trict Attorney.
Should it be found impossible 10 enforce
these rules in any State, the Commissioner,
if he thinks the exigency requires it, will
declare the State in quarantine, and any
person removing animals therelrom, except
upon q certificate of an inspector of. the
Bureau, will be prosecuted. All previous
rules and regulations are revoked. The
circular bearing this code of rules contains
also n copy of the acts of Congress upon
which they are based.

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 16.-Notwith.

the st. LOUIS boys being unable 20 do any
thing with him, while Foutz was hit very
frequently. Sylvester's magnificent one

few, excepting Metropolitan O'Brien's
clever catch of u long hit by Brooklyn
O'Brien's hit 10 left field, during which
the former fell into the ditch. No
noteworthy field work was done, hut
there was plenty OF smuggling, and this the
crowd enjoyed hugely. All in all the game
was considered one of the most exciting
that ever took place ON the grounds. Shat.
er's wild pitching in the early part OF the
game, and his general inefiectiveness in
the latter part gave the game TO brooklyn,
but it took then. ten innings to win it.
